1st Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 7f 189y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Dual winner over hurdles (2m4f/3m) but he's 0-5 on the Flat; plugged on for a modest fourth in a maiden at Carlisle (1m3f, soft) 22 days ago and now steps back up in trip on this return to handicap company. |

14th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Lightly raced 5yo; tried blinkered and tongue tied when last of eight in 1m Southwell handicap in October on his final run for Paul Attwater; lots more is required for his new yard. |

30th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
0-6 for three different trainers in a little under two years; ran well when fourth of nine on handicap debut at Kempton (1m, Polytrack) in July but has been off another four months since; needs more for the new headgear combination. |

18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
2-6 on Flat, with the second win registered over C&D (good) last August; two wins among his five hurdle races this season, including latest start, so he should be primed to run well again today. |
6/1 |
|
1st 4 |
29th Mar 2026 Good 1m 7f 157y Class 2 |
11st 7lb |
Dual Flat winner who progressed again to edge out Talakan at Ludlow in February and, although it was a rather sobering defeat at Warwick, that was against older opposition; good ground won't bother him but others might be on kinder marks. |
16/1 |
|
5th 8 |
8th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Acts on any ground; dual Flat winner who has shown steady progress in juvenile hurdles, most recently making all at Ludlow (2m) where held on by a neck from Talakan (declared 2:10); one of the main players. |

4th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
Won her maiden on AW in the spring and has proved consistent since, including in course handicap at the Royal meeting and at Listed/Group 3 level; quite a keen goer and this drop to 7f for the time since her debut could be a good move; acts on soft; gets the vote. |
5/1 |
|
11 (1) |
30th Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
Improved again when going down by 1l to Blue Bolt in C&D Listed event (good to firm) in July; her run of progressive form came to a halt when only fifth (American Gal second) in 1m Ascot Group 3 last time but she raced more freely than ideal. |

25th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Well backed and left earlier efforts well behind when winning a 7f handicap at Kempton 19 days ago; a 7lb rise asks more of him but the extra furlong shouldn't be an issue and he's capable of better; strong claims. |
6/4 |
|
3 (8) |
6th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Regressive RPRs at novice level but this son of Wootton Bassett is in good hands and may start to progress now handicapping; there was promise on his debut (sole Polytrack attempt); interesting. |
3/1 |
|
4 (5) |
10th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Not beaten far in a race that threw up several winners on debut in November (7f, AW) but again failed to settle and a long way below that level over further on reappearance; hood fitted for drop in trip/switch to turf but may be more a handicap type. |

12th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 37y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
11-race maiden who returned to form with a near-miss over 1m2f on the AW 14 days ago, despite being slow to break; first-time headgear might do something for him; effective on grass. |
5/2 |
|
2nd 3 (8) |
28th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Ten-race maiden and out of sorts so far this year; had little chance the way the race panned out in a 1m handicap here two weeks ago but he was keeping on well at the finish, boding well for today's return to 1m2f; drops in class too and he's of interest. |
4/1 |
|
8th 11 (12) |
14th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Three poor efforts this year and the handicapper's proving slow to relent; this the shortest trip he's tackled, round an easy course (no problem with 1m4f last year), and he isn't obviously fancied from yet another wide stall. |

27th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 5 |

Relegated into a seller and he has form claims, having finished runner-up on two occasions this year; however, he did run desperately only ten days ago. |
5/1 |

6th 3 |
17th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 70y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
0-6 over hurdles but ran well when close second at Fontwell (2m1f, good to soft) last month and is probably still on a workable mark after 1lb nudge; good chance. |
7/4 |
|
2nd 5 |
8th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 162y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Beaten favourite when only seventh at Wincanton (1m7f, good to soft) last month and now 0-5 over hurdles but stayed on from poor position for second at Plumpton (2m, soft) two starts ago and may still have potential. |

18th Jul 2025 Good 1m 3f 15y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Picked up well from an unpromising position to run down smart stablemate Cajole on 8.6f Wolverhampton debut in May and confirmed himself an exciting prospect with a 4l win under a penalty over 1m2f at Windsor (good) since; the way he powered clear in the closing stages suggests the slightly longer trip this evening will suit and this Group-entered colt can take the step up to Listed level in his stride. |
13/8 |
|
3 (10) |
9th Jun 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
By Make Believe out of a fairly useful 1m winner; 12-1 for 13-runner novice at Wolverhampton (8.6f, AW) 13 days ago and hampered at the start, but he travelled comfortably off the pace and passed eight rivals in the straight to win from a short-priced stablemate; that's easily the best form in this field and he looked highly promising. |
2/7 |
|
9 (9) |
27th May 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
First foal; dam 1m winner (including AW; RPR 92), half-sister to 5.5f/6f Group 3 winner Sajir, out of Group-placed 6f 2yo winner; interesting to see how he fares in the market, especially in relation to stablemate Cajole. |

18th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Displayed promise in the spring on his first three starts (7f/8.6f, AW); returns from a break having been gelded and if he's anywhere near his best he'll be tough to beat for his top yard. |
5/6 |

10 (2) |
27th May 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Promising fourth of 13 behind the smart Cosmic Year on Kempton debut (7f, Polytrack) and beaten just a short head in a first-time tongue-tie (now removed) in a five-runner Newcastle maiden (7f, Tapeta; third has won since) next time; high on list. |

24th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Dead-heated for first in a 1m2f handicap at Lingfield (Polytrack) in June but two poor efforts since; this is just his fourth handicap but a revival won't be easy from the widest stall. |
25/1 |

13 (3) |
1st Aug 2025 Good 1m 3f 44y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Dead-heated for first at Lingfield in June when upped to 1m2f on handicap debut; that AW performance remains very much his best effort, though, as he disappointed when favourite back on turf at Doncaster (1m2f, good) three weeks ago. |

Well held in three starts for Richard Hannon, including on his Wolverhampton return (8.6f, Tapeta) in May (with jockey looking down as though something was amiss); changed hands for 12,000gns in July and has enough to prove on stable debut after another six months off. |

23rd Jun 2025 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Quite nicely bred and her dam stayed 1m4f so she could step up on the mild improvement shown when fifth of eight in a classified event here (about 1m1f) two weeks ago; fitting cheekpieces might also help. |

Massive prices and not within 17l of the winner in three starts over 7f/8.6f on the AW; hard to recommend unless backed. |
